Abstract

HELICOBACTER PYLORI are the main cause of chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer, gastric cancer and lymphoma. The PREVALENCE of INFECTION depends on age and socioeconomic status of individuals. The PREVALENCE is low in developed countries but high in developing countries. The aim of this study was to determine the PREVALENCE of Hpylori in the city of KERMAN- Iran. This is a cross sectional study conducted on 331 subjects above 11 years old referred to KERMAN health centers in the year of 2000. These subjects were chosen randomly. The diagnosis of Hpylori INFECTION was based on SEROLOGICAL TEST using Elisa technique and measurement of IgG with 98% sensitivity and 96% specificity. Among the subjects 51.7% were female and 48.3% were male. The average age of women and men were 32±16.7 and 31.2±17.6, respectively. In general, the PREVALENCE of Hpylori INFECTION was 61.6% of which 63.7% in women and 59.4% in men with no significant difference between the two groups. The PREVALENCE of INFECTION in the young subjects was approximately equal to the adults and elderly subjects and no significant difference was observed between them. The PREVALENCE of Hpylori INFECTION in the subjects with lower educational status and large family size showed a significant increase. The PREVALENCE of Hpylori INFECTION in KERMAN is high and most of the cases occurs during childhood and adolescence. Improvement in socioeconomic status and hygienic conditions reduce the PREVALENCE of INFECTION.
